PUP Still Sore Over Dianne's Immigration Invite
posted (January 16, 2020)

Musa also commented on last week's swarm of immigration activity around political hopeful Dianne Finnegan's divisional office in Lake Independence.  

As we showed you, hundreds of immigrants form all over went to her office seeking help with their immigration issues after she offered to help a few in the division.  

Musa says it points to a real failure in the work of the Immigration Department:

Kareem Musa - Area Rep, Caribbean Shores
"Dianne Finnegan is no more than a standard bearer, a caretaker so to speak and so what this entire situation puts under the microscope is an indictment on the immigration department because we have so many people who have rightfully entitled to their nationality, who have been here for many years but the immigration department has been ignoring their cries and their calls and their visits and the moment you have a caretaker - now how is she being appointed the agent of the immigration department, I have to question that. And to do so in an election year, that is the true indictment, not just on the immigration department for failing these people all these years, but now, for it to be wide open in the public, that this caretaker has such super powers, that she can now, take matters on behalf of the state, on behalf of the country of Belize, as important as our birth right."

The Immigration Department technicians have said that there's nano way those persons, even with all their paperwork can be processed before the end of this year.
